What happened to the Search Icon presented upon highlighting some text on a page where you can then choose (after clicking the icon) from your installed search engines which engine to use to search that highlighted text with?

I remember with Firefox 3, a little icon popped up as soon as any text was highlighted giving you the option to click it and reveal all your installed search engines by which you could choose which search engine to use to search for that highlighted text, but now in 4, it has disappeared. I'm fairly sure it was a built-in feature for firefox 3 and not an addon, but I'm not entirely sure because the feature didn't exist on my XP machine, even though they were identical versions + had the exact same addons. Which leads me to believe that it could only work on Windows 7 & possibly Vista machines.

Anyway, if anyone else knows what I'm talking about and can enlighten me as to how I could get that feature back or why it was removed (if it really was removed purposely), it will be much appreciated.

Thanks.
